EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century artwork depicts a Falco biarmicus, also known as a Lanner falcon, in a captivating close-up. Created by Dutch artist Robert Jacob Gordon between 1777 and 1786, this chalk and ink drawing on paper showcases the intricate details of the falcon's plumage, from the grey and yellow hues of its body to the intricate patterns on its wings and tail. The falcon is perched on a branch, its sharp, hooked beak focused intently on an unseen prey, while its protective talons remain poised for action. Gordon's masterful use of shading and lettering adds depth and texture to the drawing, making the falcon appear lifelike and lifeless. The falcon's status as a bird of prey and protector of the skies is emphasized by its fierce gaze and the protective stance. Originally from the African continent, the Lanner falcon is a member of the falcon family and is known for its distinctive coloration and agility in flight. This drawing serves as a testament to the natural history and ornithology of the time, reflecting the scientific curiosity and artistic skill of the Dutch artist. The drawing is a valuable addition to any natural history or art collection, and its inclusion in the Rijksmuseum's holdings is a testament to its historical and cultural significance. This artwork is a reminder of the rich heritage of European natural history and the enduring beauty of the natural world.
